OK, maybe not but the wind picked up that afternoon so that's probably why the recording sounds eerie in places. Or perhaps a few ghosts came down for the show? Truckin' was a great start although it sounds mellower here than I remember. At the end of the song, Weir was flapping his arms like a vulture, wanting the band to cool down. It was the start of a novel set list. Especially loved Viola Lee Blues, Cryptical Envelopment - Dark Star - St. Stephen. After that, they over-jammed. It got pretty chaotic. Thanks G.D. and Heads - Good times.

The highlights musically for me were/are UJB, Alligator>Cumberland, Viola(ft the rainbow), Cryptical>Darkstar>SStephen>11, and What's Become Of The Baby!. I particularly loved the Cryptical, and knew right away that it was headed to a Darkstar. All in all I enjoyed this show more than the other FTW performances and view it as a magical experience. There are better sources for these Santa Clara shows out there, and I have heard/read about some plans to officially release them someday so hopefully that happens. These were some great shows.

Crazy Day, lots of free miracle tickets flowing outside before the show. When they opened with the Jam into the familiar threads of Truckin' my mind and the crowd exalted, awesome! A rare Bobby interjection, talking directly to the crowd, 'This is for the friends we lost", or something similar. A bumpy ride compared to the Sunday show coming next day. Trey was just getting settled in. Nice recording, thanks for sharing.

The band and the playing may have been a touch tighter the second night, but that rainbow...the sheer size of the crowd...and Phil doing "Whats become of the baby" are experiences that I will never forget. Truly amazing.

Subject: At a loss for words-- My what a Glorious Evening
Being born the year after Jerry died (in '96) this was my first and last opportunity to get an impression of what it was like to hop on ride the bus. For whatever reason, since the first time I put on a recorded show and really lost myself amidst the jamming, I knew that I was somehow just cosmically connected to the Grateful Dead-- when the tunes are on everything that was once manic and hectic just starts to make sense.
At this show I completely was blown away. Dancing as if my life depended on it (sort of like how Jerry mentioned in an interview that he would play as if his life was on the line), I dehydrated the living daylights out of the ego-less shell that my universe was inhabiting. By jumping, bouncing, and spinning around in the intense heat passing by all of the endless smiling faces with roses in hair I saw pure joy and deep play unfold before me to seemingly no end for the entirety of the first set. When the glorious, watercolor-esque sunset orange/pink clouds parted and the double rainbow emerged I swear I both saw and heard Jerry in my mind, telling me and every other fricken Head in the place to keep his spirit alive.
Hilariously enough I wound up passed out in deep trip CEV for a little during intermission, somewhere in the hallways, overwhelmed by complete and utter vibes of beauty. Having intakes to bring water to me and feeling supported and loved by basically every single Head in the stadium, there is no way I could call this a "bad trip". Regardless, it was a little overwhelming. It was the rainbow that sent me in there, and when I finally got out by cascading through and out the fiery ring spiral of my third eye-- of course they were just starting Dark Star and the fireworks were shortly after going off. It was all too perfect and magical and as someone else mentioned the entire second set was a total face melter.
My favorite jam of Dead history has oft been their '67 "St. Stephen> The Eleven", and the fact that on this evening that brilliance was enveloped by even more intense and gorgeous jamming on either side with DS to introduce and Lovelight to come out, my mind was being blows in an infinite number of ways. Of course Drums>Space was seriously special, it shook the whole damn place with unique percussive and mechanically engineered sounds never before heard. WHATS BECOME OF THE BABY!? Like what!? So awesome.
The Other One sent us all spinning around and around and the description of spanish lady's roses and bus stops trembling and exploding became all too clear to me in that state of mind. I also fucking loved the delay on Bobby's mic and the chemistry he was able to build with Trey. Fuck the haters, although he could never fill the unfillable shows, Trey still did an incredible job keeping up and showing us all a new means of approaching this music. Those who discredit him lack the love and acceptance that ought to define the DeadHead culture!!!
As for Morning Dew, the rippling and evolving blue colors of the light show combined with the soft resonance of Bobby's gentle voice (as opposed to when he had to strain it on the high-energy songs) just sent tears streaming down my face. I couldn't believe that this incredible past five hours (more importantly the past 50 years) was truly about to come to an end. It was all too amazing to really describe and I feel like I am butchering it to some extent here... But it all really changed my life.
Casey Jones was too fun to dance to. I also love how everyone was smoking weed the entire show and no security could give less of a fuck. The stadium was overrun with the love as it should have been, and although leaving that place (when they turned all the bright fluorescent lights on) was disorienting as all hell, I felt the I had died at the Dead show and came out reborn. What a long strange trip it truly has been. Be Kind My Brothers and Sisters!!!!! <333
"Inspiration, move me brightly
Light the song with sense and color, hold away despair!"

Subject: Beautiful!
Subject: Beautiful!
While the content is musically a bit different from what one might expect from a typical pre-1995 GD show, the band proved true to their "like-a-box-of-chocolates" style. Highlights include UJB, Cumberland, Viola Lee, the Dark Star thru Lovelight, any riff that Bruce played, and oh yeah, the Rainbow! (It showed up toward the end of Viola Lee, hence the excitement from the crowd on the recording). The recording is fairly true to the sounds that were coming off the stage. We're blessed to have had these shows and this recording to go along with it!

This was a Phil and Friends show disguised as a Dead show. The old magic just wasn't there, unlike the next night.
I'll listen just to hear the train wreck again. Maybe it's not as bad as I remember.
The drums, though, were great!

Good god, this show was a slam dunk in so many ways. This recording brings chills to my skin and tears to mine eyeballz. Only complaint is the drumz, the sound system was forkin' giagantisaurus and I made the mistake of not going pee during the drums>space segment, instead I felt it and it forked me up. Never recovered from that doozie. Here's my own rating: Parking Lot; A- (never met so many New Yawkuz in my life, at least in CA) Crowd: A- waddaya expect from silicon valley dead show, hot hot hot. Show/music: B+ (I like the set list from the second day better, but that is subjective n stuff). Show/Trippy A+ (melt your face the whole second set). I swear, I called Casey Jones all thru the second set, like no joke, and then what an encore. Alright it was a less than stellar encore but anyways it was an epic weekend of shazzam! How about those glory holes in the bathrooms?! Way to go Levi stadium :P

The review is this: the band defied all expectations, then exceeded them.
Look, if you thought you would be getting Trey rage and GD bliss a la heyday, well...you got doses of that. The reality is that this is a band that does what it wants. There were a few rough patches, but in my estimation, that did distract from the amazing whole. The sound was fine, the playing was collective yet challenged at times. But all in all, I think this band came together, had a mission, and executed it quite well.
To call the music "shit" shows a complete lack of understanding the GD ethos, history, and direction the beast has taken in the past 20 years, post Jer.
This band has fire, warts, grit, determination, and, moments of ecstasy (see Viola, see Alabama, Sugar Mags).
Keep on truckin'

So interesting to watch the videos (available on youtube). Trey was the right pick, yet it makes you realize that Jerry's shoes were too big for anyone to ever fill. Jeff Chimenti on organ is a nice addition. There were some bumps but also good moments. This article was a pretty good set of notes on these two shows (From "I Shit Music .com", no less): http://www.ishitmusic.com/?p=1449
